Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Put the Tamarind Pulp (3/4 cup) in a bowl and top it with hot water.
step 2
In a deep sauce pan on medium heat, pour in Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) then add the large onion. Turn heat down to low and let this slowly cook for 5 minutes, stiring often.
step 3
Add Salt (1/2 tsp), Fresh Ginger (1 Tbsp), Ground Allspice (1/2 tsp) and Ground Black Pepper (1/2 tsp) and toast the spices for a minute. Make sure to stir so the spices don't burn.
step 4
Add Onion (1), Scotch Bonnet Pepper (1), Worcestershire Sauce (1/4 cup), Ketchup (2 cups), Molasses (2 Tbsp), Brown Sugar (1/4 cup), Apple Cider Vinegar (1/4 cup) and Yellow Mustard (2 Tbsp) into the pot. Raise to medium heat, stirring often.
step 5
Using a fork, break up the tamarind pulp, then massage it with your fingers. Discard as much solid (seeds and fibers) as you can. Strain the liquid into the pot. Stir well.
step 6
Turn the heat back up so you get this back to boiling, then turn the heat down to a very gentle simmer for 30-45 minutes.
step 7
Use this sauce for grilling, a dipping sauce for your chicken fingers or for burgers. Store in glass containers in the fridge and it will remain good for at least a couple months. Enjoy!
